💅 libnvme_errno_to_string(9) — the libnvme API manual, bestie edition

okay so real talk, this one's from the libnvme API manual and it's genuinely so useful the moment one of your nvme connects goes sideways. it's giving "translator bestie" energy: you hand it a number, it hands you back words. no cap. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

libnvme_errno_to_string — Returns string describing nvme connect failures 🌸

like, literally that's the whole job. it takes the sad little error situation and turns it into an actual sentence you can read. iconic.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char * libnvme_errno_to_string (int err );

that's it. that's the whole signature. so clean. 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • err — Returned error code from libnvme_add_ctrl 🦋

so whatever libnvme_add_ctrl handed back to you when things went wrong, that's the thing you drop in here. it's the receipts. keep them. 🎀

✨ RETURN ✨

String representation of the nvme connect error codes 👑

yep — you get back a string that represents the nvme connect error codes. a whole <italic>const char *</italic> of it. no more squinting at raw ints like it's a secret code, because bestie, it was a secret code and now it isn't. 🔥

ngl it's a pointer to a string, so pls don't go freeing it or editing it — just read it and go. 🙈

🌈 the cute little sign-off 🌈

this page lives in the libnvme API manual, and it's dated October 2026 — yes, October 2026, the page is from the future and it still says libnvme_errno_to_string(9) at the top and the bottom because consistency is main character energy. mwah. 💖✨🎀
